Default Removing Garmin Zumo Fairing mount/wiring. What to cover holes with?

I have a Garmin Fairing mount w/interface wiring(which will be for sale) I want to remove from my '09 SG. I was tinkering w/it today & noticed it will leave 3 holes in my inner fairing. What are my options as far as covering these holes? Tweeter pods(which brand w/out an amp), some sort of dash pad, etc.????? Will tweeter pods be a waste when I add Polk 651's & 2 ch. RF amp? Thanks for your input!

the SG will be for sale, or the interface will be for sale? Trying to figure out why you would add speakers and amp to a bike you may be selling.

Sorry, but I'm not sure what to suggest for filling the holes.

I removed the mount from mine and the Hogtunes tweeter pod covers the holes nicely ( And adds A LOT to the sound quality ), I call that a win/win.

It covered the 2 mounting holes & the hole for the wiring? You didn't use an amp?

Paulhog, I reworded it. The mount/interface will be for sale, not the bike!!!

Go to ACE hardware and get some black plastic plug caps.....I used them on a tour pac for the RKC. I didn't want the speaker set up....3 on each side and painted them body color.

Go to your local hardware and see if they small black rubber plugs. No invisible but workable.

Yup, covered all three, and the Hogpod just wires inline on the front speakers, no amp required.

No ****?!?!?!?!?! Any specific name for them? I know 2 are 1 size & the wire hole is larger. I guess I can just say Garmin Mount Hole Plugs.

You can also go to Lowe's or Home Despot to find the plugs in the hardware section.
